Kentucky Wins SEC Tournament

Kentucky won the SEC Tournament in dominating fashion, and finally showed the kind of team Kentucky fans have been waiting on all season long. If yesterday was their most complete game of the season, today has to be dominating. Florida led for about a minute total (sarcasm) in the game, and every time Florida tried to make a run, Kentucky had an answer.


This was the best defensive game Kentucky has played all season long, holding every Florida player to single digits scoring except for Boynton who finished the game with 10. Kentucky played some zone defense at times to take some of the pressure off of Doron Lamb and his sprained ankle. And to be honest, the zone looked good for a team who rarely plays it.


On the offensive side of things, Kentucky shot the ball extremely well going 41% from the floor and 42% from the three point line, also impressive is the frees throw shooting. Kentucky kept driving the lane, and in turn kept getting to the line going 24-29 on free throws for 82%. How about Eloy Vargas, he came in played 10 minutes scored 2 points and grabbed four rebounds. By far the best showing Eloy has had all season long, and will be interesting to see if he can give Harrellson some rest in the NCAA tournament. Another thing that was good to see was the balanced scoring for the cats as 4 of the 5 starters hit double digits in scoring led by Brandon Knight with 17, Jones 16, Liggins 10, and Miller with 15.


Doron Lamb looked good as new today as Kentucky must have the beat trainers in the world. Lamb came off the bench to score just 6 points, but is amazing considering the fact Lamb could barely walk off the court last night. Now he will have some rest to get ready for the big dance.


Congrats to Darius Miller for winning the SEC Tournament MVP, and he has to be one of the most improved players on this team.


Some former cats took to twitter to send their Congrats after Kentucky won their 27th SEC Tournament Title and second in a row.
